Christmas bells concert to spread holiday cheer Saturday

A Paradise tradition

Ring in the Christmas season with the Parrott Family Christmas Show 2:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 25 at the Paradise Performing Arts Center on 777 Nunneley Road.

Entertaining for all ages, the Parrot Family Christmas variety show showcases skits, dances and music, starring new holiday songs and good ‘ol audience favorites.

“A long time ago, Brian Parrott made a deal. He would come home at Christmas time and do a hand bell concert if my dad would buy him hand-bells,” Brynn Parrott Chatfield said. “Little did we know over 20 years later we’d still be doing a Christmas concert in the Paradise Performing Arts Center.”

The Parrott family started out by inviting a few family and friends as a creative way to say thank you and as an avenue to give back to the community. Today it is an established Paradise tradition. From what started out as hand-bells and some vocal numbers performed at church has evolved to a full blown variety show.

“If you like Christmas… even a tiny bit,” Chatfield said, “you are guaranteed to enjoy this show.”
